    RAINBOW OVER THE SPIRIT OF DAWN

    after the storm..always there is love

    I've lived all of my life,

    believing in faith faithfully,

    yet I knew my belief in love was a castle made of sand

    that would wash away in the outgoing tides eventually

     

    Then came you,

    appearing as the mourning Son

    parted the clouds,

    laying your hands on a head bowed in shame,

    whispering to me, remember always you are storng, Black and Proud

     

    forever you will be my

    RAINBOW OVER THE SPIRIT OF DAWN,

    AS THE MORNING LEAVES MAKE LOVE TO THE BREEZE,

    I GENUFLECT IN THE PRESENCE OF YOUR EARTHLY MAJESTY,

    FOR YOU HAVE WARMED MY SOUL

    AND MADE MORE HUMANE MY HUMANITY

    you are my

    RAINBOW OVER THE SPIRIT OF DAWN,

    I WASN'T PREPARED FOR SUCH AN ANSWER TO MY PRAYERS,

    AS I KISS THE NEWBORN FACE OF THE MORNING SKY,

    I HEREBY ANNOUNCE,

    NO MORE SAD GOODBYES,

    FOR OUR SOUL STREAMS HAVE COJOINED IN A RIVER OF REVERENCE,

    REPENTING, THEREFORE PURIFIED

     

    Hateful words can indeed destroy,

    all that we painstakingly build,

    but if our song is one of love, peace and understanding

    the spirits will give us the will,

    to acquire the necessary skills

     

    For the Spirit rejoices in,

    the promise of those who keep close the Word,

    so let us sing in the key of love,

    a melody in these days and times seldom heard

     

    forever you will be my

    RAINBOW OVER THE SPIRIT OF DAWN,

    AS THE AUTUMN LEAVES MAKE LOVE TO THE BREEZE,

    REFRESH MY SOUL LIKE WATER FROM A MOUNTAIN SPRING,

    FOR A HOPE ONCE DEFERRED, HAS WITNESSED A MIRACLE OCCUR,

    FOREVER YOU WILL BE MY QUEEN AND I YOUR KING

    you are my

    RAINBOW OVER THE SPIRIT OF DAWN,

    I WASN'T PREPARED FOR SUCH AN ANSWER TO MY PRAYERS,

    AS I THINK THOUGHTFULLY BEFORE I SPEAK,

    THANK YOU FOR BEING THE ALOE SENT BY THE FATHER

    TO SOOTHE MY BLISTERED FEET,

    I'VE WALKED SO VERY LONG

     

    and I know, yes I know

    the purity of love has been trapped

    in the undertow of hatred's avalanche,

    and I know, yes I know

    without the Spirit's Blessing we don't stand a chance,

    but when we dance,

    to the Song of the Singing Winds,

    I feel the hold of the Crying Beast,

    being steadily released

     

    forver you will be my,

    RAINBOW OVER  THE SPIRIT OF DAWN,

    AS THE AUTUMN LEAVES MAKE LOVE TO THE BREEZE,

    THEIR EYES WERE WATCHING GOD,

    BUT WHO IS WATCHING THEM,

    SO WHILE THEY SHOUT PRAISES TO MEN,

    WE WILL EMBRACE THE MEANING OF AMEN

    you are my

    RAINBOW OVER THE SPIRIT OF DAWN,

    I WASN'T PREPARED FOR SUCH AN ANSWER TO MY PRAYERS,

    MAY THE WORD OF OUR LOVE REACH THE HIGHEST HEAVENS

    AND RESTORE OUR SPIRITUAL HEALTH,

    FOR IF WE LOVE IN THE SPIRIT OF LOVE, WE WILL BE IN LOVE,

    WE OWE AT LEAST THAT MUCH TO OURSELVES

     

    I've lived all of my life,

    now for your love I live,

    this cup I pass,

    to you I give,

    my EVERLASTING LOVE
